2023 NCAA DI Men’s Outdoor Track & Field Rating Index – Week 8

No marks from previous seasons are being used in this objective calculation.

Here are the rest of the top-10 teams in Week 8: No. 6 Nebraska, No. 7 Tennessee, No. 8 LSU, No. 9 BYU and No. 10 Texas. Of those five programs, only the Cougars don’t have a national-leading mark (Kenneth Rooks is still No. 5 in the steeplechase, despite running a quicker mark at the Sound Running Track Fest. Marks from that meet don’t count for qualifying purposes).

Mark your calendar for June 7-10, because that’s when the 2023 NCAA DI Outdoor Track & Field Championships will be held at Mike A. Myers Stadium in Austin, Texas.
